There’s no accounting for taste, as the old adage goes. That said, the internet has a habit of holding people accountable for "terrible" taste. Twitter user @corihealey posted a pair of photographs of some chicken her boyfriend’s roommate was cooking for dinner Tuesday and some are calling it evidence of nothing less than a first-degree felony culinary crime. It appears he had spread three large, unseasoned chicken breasts on a baking pan and put them in the oven; No salt, no pepper, nothing to make the chicken flavorful.“I am DISTRAUGHT,” our frightened observer tweeted. The woman’s boyfriend’s roommate received an onslaught of mockery online as the pictures of his chicken dinner went viral. Seeing as a throwback video clip of Oprah reacting to a similar recipe, or rather lack thereof, recently went viral, it's no surprise @corihealy's tweet did just that:Chicken is perhaps the most ubiquitous of meats, and there is an infinite number of acceptable ways to prepare it. But baked dry, without even so much as a dash of salt and pepper to flavor it, is not one of them. Chicken is good for you — even though high demand may be hurting meat quality — and can be delicious, of course, with the right seasonings and in the right recipes. But some argue there is nothing blander than plain, dry chicken: For some (flavorful) chicken inspiration, check out the related video above.

I often think about the time Oprah did a cooking segment with a woman whose chicken recipe won $1 million, and Oprah's jaw dropped when she tasted it and realized the lady didn't even add seasoning pic.twitter.com/rfs7PS1Jc3

Chicken is perhaps the most ubiquitous of meats, and there is an infinite number of acceptable ways to prepare it. But baked dry, without even so much as a dash of salt and pepper to flavor it, is not one of them. Chicken is good for you — even though high demand may be hurting meat quality— and can be delicious, of course, with the right seasonings and in the right recipes.

No seasoning, no sauce, not even any butter. This is a crime against poultry.
